Modern golf has a serious ball problem because courses are becoming too easy

When I watched Keegan Bradley play, I was like, okay, golf does have a ball problem. Yeah, I mean it, it was an embarrassment to the game of golf. They're making the courses too easy. It's the balls actually, right?

The USGA and R&A eventually did announce a ball rollback plan in late 2023 to address this exact concern.

Florida's decision to steal bases while leading LSU by 15 runs was a mistake that motivated the Tigers

Things got really bad for LSU when, when Florida started to steal bases when they were up by like 15 runs in the seventh inning. That, to me was a mistake by Florida because you gave LSU something to be really pissed off about going into game three... LSU would have way less to fight about I think their confidence would be down going into game three and they wouldn't be angry.

LSU defeated Florida 18-4 in Game 3 to win the title on June 26, 2023.

Ezekiel Elliott is going to get 'fat as shit' this off-season while enjoying 'summer vibes'

[Ezekiel Elliott] has been acquired by the summer. Yes, he is. He's playing full-time for summer vibes... he's gonna get fat as shit this off season.

Elliott eventually signed with the Patriots in August and appeared to be in professional playing shape, making this largely incorrect Hyperbole.

I will officially declare Damian Lillard a 'turncoat with no loyalty' the moment he is traded

The only, the only comment I have is when [Lillard] does end up getting traded, I'm just gonna be like, what a turncoat. No loyalty. And just do that and just go, go on that angle. So I I'm I'm just out on the entire storyline as it stands.

Lillard was eventually traded to the Bucks in September 2023, and the hosts largely played up the irony of his 'loyalty' brand ending.

The Ravens' fourth-quarter problems are moving earlier

Historically, the fourth-quarter Ravens have not been a great team. That fourth-quarter Ravens has started to creep its way into the third-quarter Ravens. And I think eventually it's going to keep creeping earlier and earlier in the game. I don't think it's going to get better because the defense does not look good.

This is a season-long assessment that can only be judged against Baltimore's eventual 2026 performance.

Baker Mayfield has a real revenge game against Cleveland

This is like a big Baker revenge spot too. This is not a made-up Baker—I have a perceived slight against me because some team didn't trade for me when I was on the market. This is Baker Mayfield against Stefanski, and they haven't talked since he left Cleveland.

Whether the personal history materially affects the game is subjective, though the stated public grievance is part of the episode's context.

The NFL should reduce the season to 16 games

I'm going to say it. I think that 17 games is too much. I like the scarcity. I like if you brought it back to 16, because the NFL's also been playing this game for a long time where they have to find safer-looking ways to do a dangerous activity.

The preferred NFL schedule is a policy judgment, though the player-safety rationale is grounded in the discussion's cited study.
